It could work very well. Lee's HULK was great, why are they dumbing it down? Why aren't they following the same continuity (as I've understood, this is seperate, a loose sequel)?Finally, Im not the only one that liked it

Ed Nor is an interesting choice. Although I did like Lee's Hulk to an extent. Eric Bana was great, his facial expression captivated Spielberg and ofcourse they worked together in the awesome awesome 'Munich'. The only down side to the new Hulk is probably the dissaperence of the beautiful Jennifer Connelly.

Actually, there was no body for Cyclops and it cut away before he was totally destroyed, Professor X swapped bodies, and it was shown with Magneto at the end that the "cure" might not be as permanent as first thought.

So basically nothing happened that couldn't really be turned around other than Jean being skewered at the end. And in the comics Phoenix wasn't actually Jean the first time round so even that could be turned around... What an absolute crock!!

I agree with you on the way they treated that storyline. Cyclops was wasted in X3, his death was unecessary. It seems like they were punishing Marsden for doing Superman Returns. What I did like about the story was the cure and the idea of some people choosing it and others having it forced on them. I haven't seen this movie since it was in the theatre, I think I'm forgetting more of the movie than I thought but I still feel this movie was rushed.

or... ya know.. not kill major characters...

So the whole emotional arc from the end of X2 with Scott Jean and Logan was so she could blow him to a million little pieces? Yea... ok.

Zak Penn also did some writing on X2, which was amazing, so I wouldn't say it was entirely his fault that X3 blew ass. But it was the story that sucked, not the acting, direction or action, so it he does have some blame coming to him.

I'm looking forward to seeing this but my expectations are low. Lee's Hulk was really good as was Bana as Banner. Norton is an unexpected choice for a replacement and I'm not sure at this point on what I think about him in the role. He seems like he would be out of place in a movie like this. Plus, it being made by the director of Unleashed, which I enjoyed but mostly for the scenes featuring Morgan Freeman over the action scenes. I'm not too worried about Zak Penn, I don't think he's to blame for X-men 3, I think that movie would have been better if it hadn't been rushed into production.

I`m surprised Norton agreed to do this, I would have thought it was somewhat beneath him .. I was hoping Eric Bana would return to the role to give the films some continuation. As far as I`m aware the film is been produce by marvel themselves so I don`t think the budget will be very high but looking forward to this all the same ..
